    I have completed my degree in accounting in 2015 and SBL in 2018. Currently working in non-profit organization and am sitting for my SBR after a long gap. I’m under the impression that my FA and FR would be quite outdated as many changes have happened over the years.
    I am using OpenTuition notes and lectures as well as ACCA Technical Articles to study.
    Appreciate if someone could provide advice on the below:
    1. Will 4 months be enough to pass the exam?
    2. Which revision kit should I use for practice? I am confused between BPP and Kaplan.
    3. How long before the exam should I read through the Technical Articles?
    4. Possible standards compilation for sustainability questions
    5. There are quite a few resources, and I’m overwhelmed with what’s crucial and optional.

    Many thanks, Vee

    Hi Vee,

    Im attempting my exam in December as well, ive attempted once before, but was very unprepared, barely studied, a long ago and i forgot all of it (scored 38).

    1) 3 or 4 months is easily okay to pass the exam, depending on your study habit and time given per day.
    2) I prefer and use Kaplan usually, never used BPP since i feel its complicated and i dont like the text size and layout 😛
    Also cause Kaplan has all info and if youve studied everything in Kaplan, should be enough to at least pass easily i feel.
    3) i think right after youve completed each part, you can finish the potion of the part and move on to understand the relevant technical article. And then again while revision and exam practise, read all the articles again as you encounter the concept in your question. Thats my strategy for now
    4) i have a list, i can share that with you.
    5) yeah, i just do the potion in 2 months, from wherever, as long as the syllabus is completed and youve understood all concepts related to the syllabus, which resource doesnt matter, if youre using Kaplan text, its simple, you could just stick to that and opentuition and SBR examiner videos for extra clarity if you need, even just the text is fine ig if youve understood the concept perfectly, i watch the videos as well and make my own notes as every tutor might give some extra point which will add to your understanding, but that might be unnecessary and time consuming as well ( I’m realizing that :p ) so might have to stop it, but ive strictly kept only 2 months for the text and syllabus so ill pace accordingly so i finish on time.

    Also if youre looking to study together or a study buddy, please let me know, itd help me a lot and im looking for one so..

    All the best Vee, Wishes
    Sumegh

    Hi, I scored 38 in my second sitting in sbr. Is the class provided in the youtube the updated sbr version?
    Can you please help me in scoring more than 50 in the december 2024 session. I don’t know where i’m going wrong.
    Should i watch the classes again or just study the kaplan text?
    Thanks in advance.
